Well, it's intentional anyway: that's handled by pg_dumpall.  The basic
design is that anything that can be seen from "outside" a specific
database is handled on the pg_dumpall side.

You could also get bitten by not having restored users or tablespaces
that the dump depends on, so I'm not sure there's a strong argument
here for refactoring the responsibility.
